And I readily concede it's totally my fault for not firing a cap through all of the cylinders before loading it, as it's been in the safe for a longer time than it ever has. I would guess maybe a good 3-4 seconds, the longest one I've ever had, for sure. Seemed like ten minutes, but was good for talking points with my nine year old grandson. I was seriously injured in a crane accident back in March (nine rib breaks on five ribs, punctured lung, some serious internal injuries) and the gun hasn't been fired since a few weeks before then...been cleaned a few times lol but then I'm a little OCD about stuff like that. I usually don't use petroleum oil on it but had in a couple of cleanings while I was incapacitated and bored, I guess maybe there was a little oil in that chamber. So I seemingly forgot all the lessons I've learned over the years.
Gun is a Pietta "Confederate" brass frame .44 Navy, very well used.
